Steelers RB James Conner was limited during Friday's practice, according to the team's official injury report.

Conner has one more day to get work in prior to Monday's game against the CIncinnati Bengals.

Pittsburgh Steelers running back James Conner missed Thursday's practice session with a quad injury.

The Steelers play on Monday night, so Conner will have an extra day to recover. He will need to log at least a limited practice by Saturday in order to be cleared to play against the Cincinnati Bengals. Conner has disappointed this season but has a chance for a throwback performance if he is healthy. Benny Snell will get the nod as the starter if Conner is ultimately ruled inactive. Conner is currently our 27th ranked running back for Week 15.

The Steelers run game continues to struggle. Conner rushed for 10-18-0 last week while Snell did carry three times for 14 yards. The injury could explain Conner's lack of use. Samuels led the way in snaps, but only carried four times for 15 while hauling in three catches for 18 yards. This was likely because the Steelers ended up trailing most of the game after a pick-six. The team will look to get the run game going in Week 15 at Cincy on MNF.

The Steelers activated starting running back James Conner from the Reserve/COVID list on Wednesday.

Conner will join the team for practice this week and plans to play in Week 14 against Buffalo. Neither Benny Snell nor Anthony McFarland showed much in Conner's absence, so he should slide back into his starting role this week in a good matchup with the Bills.

Steelers RB James Conner, along with a Steelers coach, tested positive for COVID.

The NFL already moved the Steelers-Ravens tilt to Tuesday due to Baltimore’s COVID outbreak. There doesn’t seem to be an outbreak yet in Pittsburgh, but it certainly is unfortunate that Conner came down with the disease. Benny Snell would be in line to take over most of the snaps with Conner out. Snell rushed for over 100 yards in place of Conner in Week 1 against the Giants. We’ll keep a close eye out on this one.

Steelers RB James Conner has no injury designation for Sunday's game against the Broncos, according to Tom Pelissero of the NFL Network.
